Been a while since I've been in this thread.
#1- Stannis has seen previously unimaginable powers from Melisandre. He is living in a world of prophecy, terrors in the night coming to sweep away all life, blah blah blah. If he truly believes that his options are to sacrifice one innocent child or let all of the innocent children, plus everybody else, die...well, not sacrificing Shireen would be the monstrous choice.
#2- It really annoys me when people say Sansa was raped. Stop it. Willingly getting banged by a dude you don't like is not being raped.
#3- It is kind of frustrating that this season has shown that so many book storylines are, apparently, completely irrelevant to the outcome of the story.
